Which between the two?

Ok...since I'm almost done training cartography/lockpicking I'm now in a debate on which path I would like to go since the ancient wyrms were beefed up.

These were the two templates I was leaning towards:
1) Tamer Thunter
2) Bard Thunter

I was originally going to just go with a plain mage thunter but from what I hear it doesn't look like that would be a viable option to solo level 6 chests...atleast if I planned on killing the spawn that comes with it instead of luring it off heh.

Thanks in advance. I wanted to ask before I train one or the other as provocation or animal taming are both slow to train.

Yeah I already have a legendary tamer for taming actual pets. I just want a character that will make doing level 6 chests with ease without soulstoning skills off and on all the time hehe. I already have the music so just have to build up disco and taming on the Thunter. Thanks again!
